Feed 215 families each week at Bread & Beans Kitchen in Mumbai
The Bread & Beans Kitchen pantry in Mumbai is running low just as demand rises; $350 will stock it for 8 weeks.

Since 2021, our volunteer team has run Bread & Beans Kitchen every Tuesday from the back of a community center. We started with 26 families, and now we feed 215 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 60% this winter, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 13 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Mumbai market and keep every receipt.
Each $10 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $350 goes:
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $90
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $185
• Baby formula and diapers: $75
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
